Political parties were out in full force this weekend, in an effort to acquire more supporters.

The Democratic Alliance leader, Helen Zille, addressed a crowd at the Stephen Reagan Sports Complex in Westridge, Mitchells Plain this morning.

In her address, Zille said every South African has the right to exercise the power of their vote and that their choice will mean the difference between success or failure for South Africa.

Meanwhile the Congress of the People went head to head with other parties as Deputy President for the party Mbhazima Shilowa and Western Cape Premier candidate, Dr. Allan Boesak, addressed thousands of supporters in Khayelitsha today.

Singer Zwai Bala entertained a 6 000 strong crowd with dongs of hope.

In Parkwood, Independent Democrats supporters descended to the Parkwood’s Sports Field to hear Acting President for the Young Independent Democrats, Xanthea Limberg, deliver a key mote address.

Performers at the event included Salomie and youth drama group Uthando.
